title: [Binocular vision after secondary lens implantation following vitreoretinal silicon oil surgery].
abstract: In 10 cases, aphakia after silicone oil surgery was corrected as follows: after completion of all retinal interventions, but not less than 3 months after silicone oil removal, an anterior chamber lens (Kelman Multiflex) was implanted. Binocular vision was interrupted for periods ranging from 4 months to 4.6 years (mean 2 years). Tests of the recovered binocular vision, on average 13 months after implantation of the lens, revealed simultaneous vision in 7 cases and exclusion in 2 (primary amblyopia; secondary divergent squint). Stereoscopic vision of 3800" was achieved in 4 cases, and of 200" in one. Four patients regained measurable fusion, between 6 and 29 diopters.
